      From: CL@nowhere.com              Google to the rescue for Ø              Also Ñ ± ¶ and lots more              See URL:       http://tlt.its.psu.edu/suggestions/international/accents/codealt.html              Ø is really a Nordic O slash. For a true slashed zero -- see URL:       http://www.reference.com/browse/wiki/Slashed_zero              The slashed zero looks just like a regular letter 'O' or number '0' (zero),       but it has a slash through it. Unlike the Scandinavian vowel 'Ø' and the       "empty set" symbol '?', the slash touches the walls of the surrounding O       shape but does not extend past them on the outside.              More on slashed zeros at URL:       http://www.eham.net/forums/ComputersAndSoftware/1                      In Ham work I use the Nordic O Ø for call signs, but be aware this can       goof up some logging programs              CL              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
